Abstract

The influence of the early editors of Contemporary Review, on its establishment and development, is discussed. The friendship between its first editor, Henry Alford and Alfred Tennyson, is considered, and the impact of Tennyson illustrated. The intellectual background and circle of Victorian figures assembled around the second editor, J.T. Knowles, is also discussed. The subsequent history and influence of the title is considered.
